It gives about 2 inches more of head height. I am 6'3\" and I fit w/ helmet in a dropped floor GTR. I would have a hard time steering and fitting in a non-dropped floor unit w/ the stock seats. I think Ultima started doing this around 2002-2003. Looking at the photos of this one, I do not think it has the dropped floors. I think the factory would sell you dropped pans if one was doing a restoration on this one.\r\n\r\nGiven this ones condition, it is likely going to have a lot of work done, at least to the fiberglass. If the owner still has the MSO that came with the chassis, one could import it into the US, \"rebuild\" it, and go through a new state certification as a new built 2020. Depending on your state you will need to add cats, ODB, ect. \r\n\r\nBut it really gets to what is the value of this example,as is in Canada. A barebones kit (no motor) from ultima is around 52+tax and shipping, and quickly can get up to 100+ish if you go for all the bells and whistles. And you still have to build it...

But then a quick internet search as pointed out below found the listing from \"Miles End Auto\" of this car a few years back that stated 2500 miles, which you now have just acknowledged below was the case?... and now the underside of the car pictures show the normal scrapes you would assume to see on a driven car (not a showroom kept vehicle) it really questions me about this vehicle all togethe? it's past usage, it's actual mileage, track time, any past damage, I see also the heat tape removed off the exhaust (not sure why?) etc etc. So can you confirm the actual mileage now that the stated 500 miles in the add is obviously not true? @bringatrailer I suggest this listing gets updated correctly with a little more transparency. It's unfortunately because to most 500 miles or 5000 miles on this car I don't think would have made a difference, but having this come out by others having to do an internet search worries me about any potential other hidden issues?

I'm simply asking for clarity and I assume any person buying a car would want accurate information about the car especially when buying it over the internet? As to your reply to my comment and questions. Your comment \"when did I say this was a showroom kept car??\" the second sentence in your listing that you provided here? It stated \"The car was reportedly used as a display vehicle at an exotic car dealership\" I'm sorry if I misunderstood that in some way as a display vehicle I would take as a showroom kept car, at least up until 2014 when you took ownership? Secondly to your comment, where in the ad did you say the car has been tracked and driven? I read the ad and You stated that you have only put on 40 miles since ownership in 2014, you did write in the comments below to someone's question about slicks that you bought the car to track it and bought new slicks for the car but they were stolen when the trailer they were in was stolen. So my question is then out of the 40 miles you've put on the car in the past 6 years, and outside of the driving on the street how much of the miles can you guess were track miles? And how much track time has the car had if you know before you purchased it? The final concern is the mileage obviously as the title of your actual auction states a \"500 mile Ultima GTR\" so I'm just wanting to know the actual mileage that is all, if you don't know what it is that's fine as lots of BAT cars have unsure mileage, if this is the case then just add that \"true mileage is unknown\" rather then how it is currently listed which for me is obviously very misleading when the original selling dealer has already stated a different mileage number... As for your comment about peeling tap and scratches under a car, well I along with other buyer do give a ****. We're buying a car over the internet!! Pictures to tell us condition of the vehicle is all we have to go on, and when there's a mileage discrepancy that's been brought up pictures showing wear and tear obviously will be questioned. Look I'm not looking to talk bad about your car, just wanting accurate information about the history of the vehicle, but as I've been around cars and auctions all my life these questions and comments are valid and as the BAT community is an educated bunch if I'm not the one asking them someone else will be. Hopefully you are able to take a few minutes to answer some of my questions about the car.", "likes": 9, "timestamp": 1586326266, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 4342732, "authorName": "Mrmoon", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/mrmoon/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "@oneheadlight \"When did I say this was a showroom kept car??\"\n\nI beleive the confusion coming from the description stating \"The car was reportedly used as a display vehicle at an exotic car dealership and spent time at The Guild of Automotive Restorers in Bradford, Ontario before it was acquired by its current owner and moved to Vancouver in 2014.\"", "likes": 1, "timestamp": 1586354076, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 4342968, "authorName": "Ravi", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/ravi/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "Worried about US importation.
